It is very nice that you had this experience...Sometimes though these mediums know exactly what other people expect to hear...they know it by experience and due to the persons emotional and psychological state...Are you sure these were informations specific to you and your dad and not general things?

Sorry, Vicky, I thought this was the thread, but she contacted her deceased Dad here.  Same principle, in the sense of paranormal information, but I'll try to trach down the Grandad thread.

Hello,
I just wanted to share my own experience with you.
I lost my dad when I was 14 and that was really traumatic and life changing for me.
I did not have a chance to say goodbye as he got sick and died in only 9 hours.
I missed him every day and I needed so much to hear from him.
I had many readings, always hoping to find someone able to connect with him but without luck. I came accross cold readings, vague messages and even people giving me messages that would fit a British person when I am actually a Spaniard (they did not know I'm from Spain).
Finally, last year, on a shop window near my daughter's school in Dartford, England, where I live, I saw this ad for a medium. I went in and booked a reading.
I spent the whole week excited, imagining what messages I could get and how I would be touched to hear this or that and how I was going to hear from my dad and my grandmothers whom I loved so much.
Basically, if this medium was going to be reading my mind, I was making things easy as pie.
The day of the reading arrived and I went to this shop. We sat in a tiny room and the medium asked if she could hold something of mine, so I gave her my chain with a cross that used to be my dad's.
The medium said I had 4 people on the other side coming forward, so happy "fighting" with each other, because they all wanted to talk to me.
I knew one would be my father and two of my grandmothers would make a total of three but who was the fourth person?. Maybe one of the two babies I miscarried?? but why just one?
First I got my dad. He wanted to apologize for leaving me so soon. He said a complete different life was planned for me but his early death changed everything. I was floored by this, from all the things I imagined this is the last thing I expected. He went on to say that I should go back to Spain where I was happy and he saw my smile. He said he did not want to see my tears anymore and to "RUN" from my present life situation. Also he asked me to sort out a health issue that can potentially be life threatening and I am ignoring.
I got none of the validation messages I was hoping for but you know what? actually, I believe the things he said were the things he would have said to me if he was alive and we spoke. That really sounded like my dad.
I never got any messages from my dear grandmothers either. Even though I was not in Spain when they passed and I wrote a song about one of them. I would have been  thrilled to hear that she is aware of the song and she likes it. Also I saw the face of the other grandmother during the C-section I had to deliver my youngest daughter. I was hoping that would come up too but it didn't.
Instead I was given June and 57 and they were suppose to be an important date, anniversary even a death.
They didn't ring a bell with me.
I said my baby daughter was born in June but that wasn't it. Then I thought 57 was the age when my aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer but it was all starting to sound vague again.
Then she said someone in my family had been shot but I strongly disagreed. I was even a bit angry and dissapointed inside because I thought I wasted my time and money once again.
That night i rang my mum in Spain to tell her about the reading, specially my dad's message. I also mentioned the rest of the information passed on by the medium and then I got the SHOCK of my life.
I couldn't believe it, it was so surreal. It turns out my grandfather (father of my mum) who I never met because he died when my mother was 10, was the fourth person trying to speak to me that day. He had died 2 June 1957 when he shot himself cleaning his gun (he was a policeman).
I have to admit I did know about him and the way he died from all the times my grandmother told the story but at the time I didn't remember. It didn't register with me because I was expecting my other closer relatives to come through. Someone that I never even met was completely out of the question and out of my mind.
Also I did not know the exact day of his death, maybe they told me as a child but it didn't stay with me.
Bottom line, I was completely closed to my granddad and anything to do with him. I can safely say there was not a single thought or memory of him in my mind, before or during this reading, and somehow he came through.
You can never be 100% sure of anything but one thing I know, if the medium faked the reading, she didn't do it by reading my mind.

I hope my experience was helpful.

Love and Light to all.

Sandra.
   

Sandra, thanks for sharing. That was an amazing post!
The medium's messages were spot on and in some cases you had to validate the info with others as you did not know about things she claimed. For her to be SO specific is incredible.

I am wondering how a rational, scientific mind would be able to explain away what you are telling us.

Do you recall the name of the medium and whether she has a website? Guessing she may not if she works out of some small shop.

Sorry for not having posted all my questions in one post Sandra.

Do you currently have a health issue that you are ignoring?


"Also he asked me to sort out a health issue that can potentially be life threatening and I am ignoring."

Thanks for the clarifications, Sandra.  The fact that the channeling had to overcome your preconceptions makes the session unusually impressive to me.  So does your ability to distinguish the facts of what was actually said from the inferences you drew.  By the way, the inferences you drew strike me as quite reasonable under the circumstances.  I dearly hope you can now find a place and network of people that  truly nourish you soul.
